Product Description For both hot and cold iced tea, the Ceylon iced tea jug from Bodum combines fashion with functionality. To use, simply add your preferred tea leaves into the filter, then pour 3- to 4-ounces of boiling water over the leaves, filling the jug with cold water from the tap. Close the lid then refrigerate overnight. The plastic tea maker holds 50-ounces.
Amazon.com Review Winter or summer, no Southerner will be found without a glass of iced tea in hand. With Bodum's Ceylon ice tea pitcher, brewing a superlative fresh version of this beverage is a breeze even for the Mason-Dixon-challenged among us. Simply place tea leaves in the brewing column, pour a few ounces of boiling water over them, fill the jug with cold water, and leave it in the fridge. The next morning, add lemon and sugar and start counting the hours until it's time to switch to juleps; you don't even have to remove the leaves in order to pour. Bodum's classic design makes this an attractive serving pitcher as well. --Mary Park

It is what it is. November 24, 2008 Vicky (New Cumberland, PA) If you are looking for a heavy duty iced tea maker...this is not the product. However, it works well to infuse tea and make iced tea with teabags. It is made of a thin plastic which wouldn't hold up using everyday but like a lot of items it has its purpose. It is thin, lightweight. This is the 2nd one I have purchased. It lasted about 3 years. For what i use it for ...it's great.
exactly what I wanted; great item August 18, 2008 A. Green (Virginia) I absolutely love this pitcher. I go through a ton of iced tea, and this makes keeping a fresh batch on hand so easy.
I haven't had any problems with it not straining the loose tea sufficiently, and I wonder if the people who have aren't using good quality loose tea. If you're using tea that's designed to be brewed loose, this shouldn't be happening. Hasn't been a problem for me.
OK, it's a plastic pitcher August 9, 2008 fotobug (Nashville, TN) Nice size, doesn't take much space in the frig. I wish the lid was removable so that it would fit in the dishwasher. The lid moves only 90 degrees, which makes it almost impossible to fit in a dishwasher.
Clearly disappointed! June 29, 2008 C. Norton I ordered two of the 51 ounce tea makers, fully expecting them to be as they were pictured - and as I have seen them in stores. However they arrived and were bright orange in color and definitely not see through as I wanted. I decided to keep them and get used to the color. They are fully functional and work very well - as well as the clear ones I am sure! So, although I'm disappointed in the actual appearance of the tea makers, we are still enjoying delicious cold tea. I bought two smaller ones in order to make and keep on hand two different kinds of tea at once. The clear ones would have allowed us to see clearly which kind of tea was inside, without opening them or smelling. And I am getting used to the startling color. I'm not so sure about my husband. He wanted me to return them. But I'm not planning to serve them at the table, so I decided to enjoy the low price I paid and deal with the garish color.
Fits easily in my refrigerator, height of milk container May 19, 2008 C. Chu 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The good thing about the 51 oz pitcher is that it is the same height as a milk carton, so it is not too tall to fit in my refrigerator. It is a nice fancy tea pitcher, with a flip up lid, and a easy to pour spout that does not spill the tea.
Mine did come with instructions, and for the first brew, I followed the instructions and put seven (7) tablespoons of tea in the chamber. Gag! the tea was way too strong. After some experimentation I have settled on 2 Tablespoons and 3 minutes of steeping to make sure we don't get the bitter taste.
